Condition Report

Framed: 35 x 25 1/4 inches.
Substantial deposits of surface dirt and dust; varnish layer is heavily discolored and unevenly applied, most notable in brown stains in upper right of sky and along upper left edge; canvas is not lined and has minor distortion, visible only in raking light; small vertical area of stable craquelures along lower left edge, likely caused by the stretcher; pinpoint white paint droplets in center left; one pinpoint paint loss in lower left, within bank. Under UV light, varnish fluoresces green and obscures any possible inpainting. Additional images available upon request.
